6 Awesome iPhone 6 Concepts

Apple’s highly anticipated iPhone 6 has already generated more speculation than the next “Star Wars” movie, the World Cup and the new season of “Game of Thrones” combined. The handset’s rumored feature set includes a bigger display, a robust fitness app and a faster A8 processor, but what will it look like. A few artists and designers have mocked up their own version of Apple’s sequel.

Some of these concepts are sleek and subtle reinventions of the iPhone that fans know and love, while others look like they were ripped right out of science fiction. Here are six of our favorites.

Transparent iPhone

For Csaba Nagy, the iPhone's new direction is crystal clear. Nagy's iPhone 6 concept video turns the iconic device into a thin, completely transparent piece of interactive glass. This concept has an LED home button that only lights up when you tap it, and can even project its screen holographically for a wider field of view. We may be getting a taste of transparency on the iPhone soon, but Nagy's idea looks like it's from a distant, more high-tech future.
